AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful pair of statuettes produced in Capodimonte, marked with the crowned N.
Handcrafted by artisans from the Capodimonte area who have managed to create an object of exceptional artistic quality.
The figures show high expressiveness and rich detail. The girl is seated on a bench, with her feet not touching the ground, while she holds a large bundle containing flowers. The boy sits on a rocky ledge, wears a wide-brimmed hat and is barefoot, with a woven basket placed beside him.
Marked with the crowned N at the base.
Dimensions: 16x8x6 cm
Seller's Story
My name is Riccardo, I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artist vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and the ability of great artisans and designers who shape this so fragile material, turning a raw mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I became interested in the history of 19th- and 20th-century tableware art; today, every day, I work with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. Of my work I love that I can discover more about the objects I find as I travel around Italy, always learning something new. I always strive to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each one of them has a story to tell: the story of who created it, the story of who preserved it, and the story of who will give it a new life.
